If you haven't come across Mosko Moto before, this American motorbike luggage manufacturer specialises in making rugged gear to help you conquer tough terrain. But, for those of us who spend most of our time riding on the road, how does this piece of motorcycle luggage fair for daily use and on a bike tour?

Thanks for reviewing this tank bag. I decided to get in contact with Mosko in the Nederlands, and they couldn’t be more helpful, superb customer service 👍 After paying the import tax and delivery to the UK it worked out at £220, this may seem expensive, but it ticks all the boxes for me. I wanted to ride with a hydration pack, but wear a air bag vest, so having a water bladder incorporated into the bag was awesome 😎 It is easy to fit and looks great 👍

I'm glad you enjoyed the review Steve. I agree, it's great piece of kit. I hope you enjoy plenty of adventures!

Thanks for a great review. Love your honesty about the actual space in the bag - it’s what I’ve been wondering too. Save riding!🎉

[@fabienpics]

Thank you for all the info

[@desert4seat]

YES! thanks for the review; I love smoking weed when I'm on a tour. looks like a good bag!

shame its not waterproof, just recently purchased a new small ish tank bag and it was between the Nomax and the Enduristan of equivalent size, in the end the waterproof Enduristan won out, the covers for tank bags are always a pain you have to remember to pack it, they never fit well and ultimately if using the map pocket or phone pocket they then become worse than useless, if only mosko had used the waterproof stuff on the outer layers and zips it would have been a winner.

I love the #moskomoto family of bags and general ethos of the team, and this bag rocks so many boxes for me; the one missing IMHO is the way it straps to the tank. I’d much rather have seen a mono-lock type system to avoid scratching the tank on my GSA sadly, though it’s a small thing I know...

[@ABRmagazine]

Good shout Gareth. Mosko Moto are making some great gear at the moment. The Nomax has been a permanent fixture on my Tenere since it arrived at the ABR office a couple of months ago.

It’ doesn’t scratch your precious Starbucks gs

I have the Mosko Nomad (the same bag) it’s great if you live in California, but not in these wet parts. It’s such a pitty it’s not waterproof.

[@ABRmagazine]

Yeah, it's a shame Michael. I've really enjoyed using the bag, and it's still on my bike even after reviewing it, which is always a good sign, but it would be nice to see a waterproof version released at some point.

[@michaelwilliams3861]

@@ABRmagazine but they do have other waterproof tank bags.

[@ABRmagazine]

@@michaelwilliams3861 We'll have to take a look at them for another review.

[@alrightdave6135]

Just use the cover

[@rodnose9350]

so with that price in UK after duty tax (thanks to the brexit) is not even waterproof and need to buy asda bag to cover it because in UK most the time is sunny is that right?

São muito boas, comprei duas uma para mim outra para my brother

And the DSLR fits easily in the beaver tail: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZrKfYmfl9Jnqas I love this bag. As the BMW tank bag also scratched my tank, I had the dealer put 3M's stone shield on my tank.

[@ABRmagazine]

I quite agree, it's a great bag, but I'll stand by the comment that fitting a DLSR in the bag, or beaver tail, along with my other gear, is a bit of squeeze. His camera bag is smaller than mine.

No shit. It all makes complete sense now. Assorted PainKillers, Various Smoke and smoking accessories, Shades and Visine, Phone and accessories, Wallet and Keys, Knife and Flashlight, ToothBrush and paste, Snacks and Water, and most importantly Condoms and Viagra. Please find a solution for a Coffee or a Beer and this TankBag will change lives.
